On the ride, one evening's entertainment was a talent show from the participants. There were people who told jokes, others who played instruments, an 18 year old girl that missed her graduation for the ride and played the Star Spangled Banner for us on her flute, and there was one rider who told us a story.

He told us of how he was riding into town that afternoon and stopped at a light where a school teacher was walking a group of grade school students down the street. They stopped also, and one of the boys asked the rider, "Hey, where are you going?" and before he could answer, the boy behind him elbowed him and said "Don't you know, silly, he's going to change the world."
